Fixation-Processing

After sampling the tissues (I work with bone) and the fixation (with 10%
formalin)I only can process them after one week . There is no problem or
must I put in alchool? And if yes, can I put the tissue another time in
formalin diretctly? How many time in formalin without lose their properties
for morphology and immunohistochemistry)
